::Said and Done::
::Naruto's POV::
I groaned, rolling over on my back to stretch.
"What time is it?..." I muttered to Sasuke, rubbing my eyes. I glanced over to him, but found a piece a paper in his place. I picked up the note and scanned over it.
"Naru, don't panic when you wake up. Hinata and I agreed to let you stay home to rest today. I'll get your homework so you don't fall behind in your classes. I made you breakfast for you. it's in the microwave. Make sure you eat. I don't want your stress level to get any higher. Otherwise you'll get sick. And the Karin thing... I'm going to speak with her today. I'm sure it'll all work out for the best. I love you. Sasuke."
I sighed deeply and let myself fall back on the bed. Good. I didnt' want anything else to happen.
::Sasuke's POV::
When I came to school without Naruto, Karin immediately took her chance to confront me.
"Sasuke! How are you?!" she exclaimed, clinging to my arm.
I decided to make her feel bad. I think she deserved some sort of guilt after how she treated Naruto. "I'm not too great actually..."
"Oh? What's wrong, hun?" she questioned, subtly backing me up against my locker, while she snaked an arm around my neck. "Tell me what I can do to help. I'm sure there must be something I can do." Her index finger brushed against my lower lip.
I flinched away from it and pulled her hand away from my face. "It's Naruto. He becoming sick."
"Sick?" Karin raised an eyebrow. But didn't looked too faised about it.
I nodded, "That's right. You see, when Naruto's body falls under a great deal of strain from worrying about too much, he gets very exhausted and develops a fever. Right now, he's at that point. I let him stay home today because of it."
Karin completely backed off from me, "Home? You mean... you two l-live together?"
"Well, yeah." I replied. "Naruto and I are very much in love. We would give our lives for each other. I've never felt this way about anyone before. He's the greatest bond I've ever had... Naruto... he's my sole purpose for living at this point in my life. And I don't see that changing one bit." I explained. "I wanted to talk to you about that."
Karin shifted he weight to her heels, "Go on, Suke."
'Suke... she used to call me that when we were kids. I guess I wasn't the only one trying to play the guilt trip game.
"Karin, I'm sorry, but I'm going to have to ask you not to interfere with mine and Naruto's relationship. This is completely different from when we were young. You can't just yell in Naruto's face and expect him to go away like those little girls all that time ago. I would have thought you might have matured by now." I sighed and continued. "Listen... I know how hard this might be for you. But... you have to at least try and get over me. There are alot of other nice guys at this school. Like that Suigetsu. He seems like a good guy. You should try. You never know what could happen. You may just grow to like him more then you've liked me for all these years."
Karin didn't protest. She just stared at me, silently as if waiting for me to say something like: "Oh, I'm only joking! Of course I'll leave my wonderful boyfriend for a girl like you. Please ignore the fact that I'm completely gay and that I have been committed to Uzumaki Naruto for a year, and have no intention of leaving his side."
"Um, I'll see you later then..." I said, walking away to go to my first hour class. I really hoped my words had gotten through her head.
The rest of the day Karin didn't bother me. In fact, I kept seeing her with Suigetsu.
"Looks like those two are getting along nicely." Hinata commented at lunch. "I figure that's your doing, ne Sasuke?"
I nodded, "Yeah. I just didn't think she'd listen."
"At least she isn't bothering you about what you said to her. She could be really persistent about this, you know." Sakura said, taking a drink of her water.
After that no one said much. I didn't mind. It gave me time to think.
During 7th hour study hall Sakura, Temari, and Hinata crowded around my desk.
"Hey, Sasuke-kun. Did you hear?" Temari asked. "Karin is going to be hosting a Halloween party at the end of the month."
"Forget it. There is no way I'm gonna be able to get Naruto to go to that party." I replied, leaning back in my seat.
"Sure, I'll go." Naruto said plainly, yawning while he situated himself under his blanket on the bed to get comfortable.
"W-what? Are you sure?" I questioned, feeling his forehead. "You still have a fever. It's probably making you delirious. I mean, this is Karin we're talking about here."
"Sasuke, it's alright." he replied. "I was thinking today and I shouldn't let her get to me. Your right... your mine and I'm not going to let anybody steal you away from me." Naruto said, kissing my hand. "So this weekend we'll go hunting for costumes!" he added with a grin.
"Sasuke-san? Naruto-kun? You two aren't making out again are you?" Hinata called from outside the bedroom door.
"No. We're keeping it PG!" Naruto yelled back, giggling.
"Good." Hinata replied, entering the room carrying a tray of food. "Here, Naruto-kun." she said, placing the tray on his lap.
Naruto took one look at it and covered his nose and mouth, disgusted. "Eww! Leak soup?! Gross! You know I hate leaks Hina-chan!" he protested.
"I don't care. It's good for you when your sick." she pressed her palm to his forehead. "Yep. You still have a fever. So that means your staying home tomorrow too."
"But Hinata! I feel just fine!" Naruto exclaimed, flailing his arms around.
Suddenly his eyes darkened and he fell back on his pillow.
"Naru!" I quickly reacted, panicking.
He smiled meekly at me. "Don't worry, Sasu... I just felt a little faint. I'm okay."
"You definately need more rest." Hinata told him. "If you go back to school in this condition, you'll end up passing out there."
Hinata walked to the door, "Sasuke-san... make sure he eats every bite..." she said to me, before leaving.
Naruto sighed as I helped him sit back up. "Hinata has always been so nice to me. She's such a kind and loving girl."
I nodded, putting a spoonful of soup in his mouth. "It's in her nature. Hina-chan is very nice. She's always been like that." I gave Naruto another spoonful.
He choaked it down and took a drink of the hot tea on the tray. "I should tell her how much I appreciate her after this. She deserves praise."
I smiled slightly, then guilt filled my head. I knew the real reason Hinata was overly-kind to Naruto. It was nearly a half a year after Naruto and I started dating that she told me the truth.
"Sasuke-san... I... I l-love Naruto-kun..." she stuttered. "And because I do, I wanted him to be happy. He's happy with you. I can see that. So, please... take care of him."
Even though she's with Gaara now, I can tell she never repressed her feelings of affection towards Naruto. I knew she loved Gaara with all her heart. She told me that... I bit my lip as her words echoed in my head. I didn't think I could ever tell Naruto how Hinata really felt about him. Hinata had to watch heart broken while me and him were happy together...
"Sasu?" came Naruto's voice.
I snapped out of my thoughts. "I'm fine. I was just thinking."
"Oh, okay. You have me worried there for a moment." Naruto grinned.
Naruto ended up staying at home Thursday as well. But by Friday, his fever had completely diminished and he was up running around like his usual self. After school me, Naruto, Hinata, and Gaara went to go shopping for Halloween costumes for Karin's party. Luckily Naruto and Gaara knew this really great costume shop downtown. Halloween was Naruto's favorite holiday.
"There's just something so thrilling about it! I'm so excited!" he explained as we walked through the doors of the shop. The shop keeper didn't waste any time greeting us. He was a white-haired man that looked about in his fifties.
"Well, well! Uzumaki Naruto! We meet again!" he exclaimed, "And Gaara, you too!" he caught a glimpse of me and Hinata "Ohhh, who might your companions be?"
Naruto took my hand and smiled, "Jiraiya, this is my boyfriend, Uchiha Sasuke. And the girl is his cousin, Hinata, Gaara's girlfriend."
The man now named Jiraiya laughed, "Ahah, I see! He sure looks like a keeper Naruto!" he then set his eyes on Hinata, "And you yourself are quite a catch as well, young lady!"
Hinata blushed and hid her face, "T-thank you."
"So, Jiraiya. Think you could help us out with our costume choices again this year?" Naruto asked.
"Of course!" Jiraiya declared "That's exactly what I'm here for! We'll start with the lady." He added, looking at Hinata.
He began circling her as if he were studying her. "Your name was Hinata-chan, correct?"
"Um, y-yes." she mumbled, still flustered.
"Hm, I see..." Jiraiya said to himself, stopping in front of her. "Nice slender body, right amount of curves, flawless skin, and your look of innocence is unlike any other! I've never seen anything like it before!"
Man... this guy was a major pervert. Poor Hinata. I didn't think her face could get any redder. She was so embarrassed.
"I know exactly what you should be!" Jiraiya exclaimed, running to go find a costume. He came back seconds later holding a frilly maid outfit in his hands. "A Lolita! And that's not all!" Jiraiya went behind his desk and grabbed something. He walked back to Hinata and placed a pair of black bunny ears on her head. "A Lolita bunny girl!"
I was wrong... Hinata's cheeks did get redder.
"Go on and try it!" Jiraiya said, handing her the costume.
She reluctantly took it and went into the dressing room. After five minutes she poked her head out from behind the curtain of the dressing room. "Hey Sasuke-san, could you please come help me?"
I nodded and walked into the room with her. "Sure."
She turned her back to me, "Think you could lace up the back of this corset?" she asked.
"I can try." I replied.
She faced me again when I was done. She put the bunny ears back on and flipped her long hair over her shoulder.
"You look so cute Hinata. I thin Gaara will be very approving of this outfit." I commented, making her blush.
We came out of the dressing room and all eyes were on Hinata.
"That's it! I'm a genious!" Jiraiya exclaimed in victory. "Now, who's next?"
We all came out of the shop with the most fitting costumes. Naruto was going to be a demon fox, Gaara was a death reaper, and since Jiraiya dubbed me as a cool and mysterious guy, I was a vampire... with cat ears. I don't know how I managed to pull off the cats ears with it, but I did. According to Naru, I was the sexiest vampire boy ever.
"I can't wait until the party!" Narut said with a bright smile gleaming on his face.
I couldn't believe how cheerful he was being. It made me so happy that he could smile like that even when people were trying to bring him down.
The night of the party came quickly. We arrived at Karin's house around 7:00 pm. It took Karin no time at all to find me. Ironically she was dressed as a witch. How fitting...
She skipped up to Naru and I. I pulled Naruto closer to me automatically.
"I'm so glad you two could come!" she greeted, "I hope your feeling better now Naruto-kun. When Sasuke-kun told me you were ill, I wsa a little worried."
Something was wrong... Karin was being a bit too nice.
Suigetsu appeared beside her, "Hey, come in and enjoy the party guys." he said, slipping his arm around Karin's waist.
"Yeah, sure!" Naruto replied, leading me away from them. "So what's up? Are Karin and Suigetsu dating now?" he asked.
I shrugged, "Not sure..." But it didn't seem right to me.
::Normal POV::
When Naruto and Sasuke were out of sight, Karin removed Suigetsu's arm from her.
"Watch it buddy!" she growled, "I said to pretend to be my boyfriend. And that has some rules." she stuck a finger in the air, "One! No touching me! Two! No even thinking about touching me! And three! Don't tell anyone that your my boyfriend!" Karin snapped.
Suigetsu backed up and put his hands up in defense. "I'm sorry. I just thought that it would look more believable if we, ya know, held hands or something." he said with a light blush on his cheeks.
Karin glared at him, "Listen! I have no interest in dating you. I put this little plan into action for my own benefit! To get Sasuke-kun into my own grasp, and get rid of that blond nuisance! So deal with it! she explained, stomping away.
Suigetsu frowned and tagged along behind her as she made small talk with some of her other guests.
She smirked as she caught a glimpse of Sasuke across the room. "You'll most definitely be mine, Sasuke-kun. I can promise you that..."
::Sasuke's POV::
About an hour into the party, I really had to go to the bathroom. Naruto was keeping himself occupied by getting us glass after glass of fruit punch.
"Naruto, I'm gonna go try and find the bathroom." I told him.
He nodded and continued on in his conversation with Hinata and the rest of our group.
I slipped out of the room and wandered down a random hallway. I was surprised at how easy if was to find the bathroom. Right before I could walk in, something grabbed my wrist I pulled back. I spun around quickly and came face to face with an all-too-familial face.
"Hey Sasuke...." Karin whispered down my neck.
Her hot breath tickled me, causing me to shudder. I felt the hairs on my neck stand up. "Karin... what are you?..."
I lost my train of thought as she began ravishing my mouth and neck with kisses. I attempted to push her off, but she fought back with every ounch of strength she had in her to stay attached to me. "Karin.... stop this...."
She listened and stopped her assault on me for a brief moment. "Sasuke-kun..." she whispered, looking up at me with lust-filled eyes. "You can't deny my touch... you know it feels right..." she said, pushing her thigh to my groin.
I groaned inwardly, then slapped my hand over my mouth, realizing what I had done.
"See? You want this don't you?" Karin asked, grinding herself against me.
She unfastened the first couple buttons of my shirt, then attacked my collarbone with licks and nips. I tried to speak, but I couldnt' think straight at all. My mind was completely blurred. No coherent words escaped from my lips. My mind became to fuzzy I didn't even realize when she stopped and unbuttoned my pants. That's when reality hit me. I gasped looking at Karin, who was about to...
"NO!" I yelled, grabbing her by the hair before she could touch me anymore.
"Sasuke?...."
My eyes widened in horror. That wasn't Karin's voice.
I glanced to my side. Naruto was standing there, with tears in his eyes.
"Naruto... I.... I didn't mean it..." Were the stupid words that came out of my mouth.
"How could you!?!?" he shouted in anger and hurt, before he took off running back down the hallway.
I got myself together and looked down at Karin before heading after him.
"I hate you..." I said to her in barely a whisper.
What in the hell was I going to do now?
Kiko- OH THE HORROR! I'm sorry everyone!! I'm sorry to Hinata for making her be creeped on by a pervert. I'm sorry to Suigetsu for making him be treated like crap. I'm sorry to Naruto for witnessing his beloved boyfriend making out with a girl. And I'm sorry to Sasuke for being molested by Karin! I'm a terrible person! It'll all get better, I promise!!!
Please review. :3 Thanks!
